## Memory View

Use the Memory view to inspect and change process memory. You can address memory using expressions such as:

- 0x0847d3c
- (&y)+1024
- *ptr
- FNname + 1

You can configure your output to display traditional, hexadecimal, ascii and/or signed/unsigned decimal. You can also set the size of the rendering columns.

CAUTION Arbitrarily changing memory contents could degrade the stability of the IDE, another program, or the operating system itself. Understand the consequences of manipulating memory.

Figure 1 shows the Memory view. Table 1 explains the items in the view.
